Answer:

Real examples of promethean ambition can be seen in scientists who want to use stem cells to change biological situations.

Explanation:

Prometheus is a god of Greek mythology, who stole fire from Olympus, against the will of the gods, to deliver that fire to men. Based on this myth, the term "promethean ambition" is used to describe characters in literature who want to dominate and modify nature at their leisure.

As we know, there are many characters who can fit the term "promethean ambition", however we can also have examples of the application of this term in real life. An example that can be cited are scientists who develop research and ways to use stem cells to modify or prevent the existence of some biological situations, such as malformed organs and bones.

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is said to be a novel of its time, meaning that it reflects the values and issues of
Lilit [14]
This statement is correct because the novel accurately and vividly depicts the gap between Victorian moral ideals and their absolute subversion and degradation. When deformed and hideous Mr. Hyde knocks down a little girl in the passage, it is almost a metaphor for his knocking down everything that is sacred and valued within his society - and the girl herself is a symbol of innocence. A couple of months later, he beats a man to death, displaying his urge for violence. But the most disturbing fact is that he is the same person as Dr. Jekyll, a well respected and decent man of high standing in his society, who can't bear to give up on his evil alter-ego. It depicts the fact that the more the society tries to restrain our dark urges, the stronger and more irresistible they become.

Which of the following calls to action is implied?
Licemer1 [7]
With the exception of option A, all sentences are written in imperatives (verb structure used for instructions and/or oders) Therefore, in these examples, the <em>call to action</em> is explicit, not implicit. Your best answer is option A because, apart from the fact that it's the only viable one, here you have a persuasive example by consensus. Simply put, instead of telling you directly to do something, it's telling you that everyone is doing it, which is likely to make you want to do it if you want to be like them.
